About 200 farmers lose funds for excess depleting or insufficient conserving acres. Some 700 qualified farmers will be paid, with committee meetings to set wheat acreage and depleting crop allotments based on past production. The soil committee has data on 1,920 farms from three acres up, in a county with 1,977 farms per the last census.
